yeah there wouldn't be any need to study the stuff in maths in focus if you ace cambridge and fitzpatrick... you mr studious :p
Next time you see me at school, I will barely be able to walk.

Haha, and you think I do? :p
Well you did identify the name of the car correctly.

I love hearing the stories of what goes on in the applied class at my school. They learn how to calculate the cost of groceries, bullshit like that. Apparently, for their assessment, they will be going to Bunnings and comparing prices or some rubbish like that. They often come out of class with work which has been covered with drawings of penises, haha.
Bro, a trip to Bunnings would be epic.

Ruse just takes things to new levels. In yr11 they have 7 extension classes and like one 2U class. And in Yr 12 they have four 4U classes
lol fail, why would there be only 1 2u class? Yr 11 extension students takes 2u aswell. FAIL!

I was given a choice similar to this by my parents. As a student in rural NSW going to the city would be a bit daunting for me (but I would adjust). When things came down to it, I wanted to stay with my friends. I realised we are only kids and we should enjoy these last few years.

Unless you don't have any really close friends, then I suppose it wouldn't be an issue.

You can have combined 2U and 3U classes for those who do 3U.

Fail.

For the sake of our school then not...

Idk tbh but I don't think it'll boost your ATAR by much... and you're likely to get into the course you're gonna do anyway, even if you're at BWB :p

Wow, my school mustn't be maths orientated (and it is top 200). A tiny *cough* applied maths class (if they turn up to school, there's like 10, curse uncle kevin making them stay), 4 general classes, 2 advanced classes and 1 extension class.
